2017
has certainly blessed this classic wine. This vintage is a blend of Aglianico
41%, Tempranillo 30%, Petite Sirah 15%, Sryah 7%, and Malbec 7%. Gaze at the tantalizing deep red color and
let your imagination run wild on what to expect. After 45 minutes or so of
breathing, it really opens with fruit forward aromas of cherry and fig. Flavors of cola will soon compliment your
senses along with a hint of vanilla. This red wine has excellent structure and
a nice smooth finish. As it hits the 5-year mark, the acids and tannins are
about medium for this full-bodied jewel. You can still cellar longer if you
have extra bottles but do savor every drop of this delightful blend. Cheers!
Wine Of The Moment is just that. A moment of trying out a new bottle of wine and sharing our thoughts and impressions. There is no planned wine bottle that is to be opened or set time that it will be tasted. It is what ever just happens to be opened...for the moment. On occasion, we may also post our feedback on new wineries that we have visited as well as unique cheeses. So, pull up your own plate of cheese, crackers, and fruit and enjoy these discussions.
